"All we needed for one night."

Very quiet with everything you need. The breakfast idea was perfect because we had to hit the road early.

"Very nice place. Is recommended."

Comfortable unit, very neat and secure. Friendly owners, very helpful.

"Very nice stay, thank you."

Great stay, thank you.

"We had a very nice stay."

Everything was very neat and peaceful.

"Exactly what we needed for an overnight stay."

Will definitely stay at Vrede & Vreugde if ever we have reason to be in Ceres in the future. The reason for our visit to Ceres was to run the Ceres Michell's Pass Half-marathon on Saturday, 28th October. Our hosts were most gracious and accommodating. I had mistakenly thought that we could take occupation from 14:00 and therefore arrived at about 14:30 on Friday afternoon. Our host kindly allowed us to settle in even though we were well ahead of the published occupation time of 16:00. Furthermore, on arrival and without even having to ask, our host advised that we would not have to vacate by 10:00, so that I could enjoy a relaxing shower and freshen up after the run. To my dismay, when I got back home at about 13:30 on Saturday, I realised that I had left my running shoes in the room; I immediately phoned our host, who very kindly agreed to arrange for my shoes to be returned to me. Nothing was too much to ask. As to the accommodation itself, it was very well appointed - plenty of cupboard space, a very comfortable bed, clean and neat bathroom with an excellent shower, and perfectly adequate self-catering kitchen facilities. Our hosts also generously provided snacks, rusks, coffee, croissants, and breakfast cereal, smoothies, and more, for our comfort, at no extra cost. All in all, a very pleasant stay with gracious hosts.

"Very friendly and good service."

We were surprised with a nice platter and champagne and balloons to congratulate us on our marriage. The owners are the friendliest two people and we enjoyed our time there.

"Good stay, nice and warm and cosy."

See stars.

"We were very welcome and the place was well equipped."

We were very welcome and the place was well equipped with delicious breakfast and coffee, snacks, as well as a nice warm and comfortable/cuddly bed.

"Hospitality was very poor arrived there at 15:45 after which the man who sat in the house the whole time only came to open at 16:00."

It's supposed to be a B&B and as they say on the email a variety of porridges there were only 4 cubes of weetbix and 2 small packets of meusli, there was also yogurt and fruit, but in my eyes you can't have 4 cubes of weetbix for 2 people don't give for a whole weekend, that's not a B&B, in your advertisement it is also said that there are cleaning services between 11 and 15:00. They didn't make the bed, just pulled out and didn't even wash and wipe the dishes and didn't even put clean towels back in, had to wash the dishes ourselves, there wasn't even soap to wash you with, we had to use our own soap and going to buy towels. On Sunday we threw those dirty towels in the shower after which they put them back on the arrangement. Their vehicles were parked under the canopy and our vehicle was parked in the rain. It rained so terribly that our vehicle was rained through, don't put your guests first, because there was a garage where they could park their vehicles as well.

"Home away from home."

The name says it all: Peace & Joy. One experiences the warmth, joy and peace of the place. Maria made us feel at home right on arrival with her beautiful personality. Maria, thank you for letting us stay in your cute little place, sleeping nice and warm and cuddly, not to mention the incredible pampering snacks - we didn't expect it - 10 stars. We will stay there again.

"Will never ever use again."

I asked for accommodation for two people, but when you get there it is only booked for one person. Asked for two single beds but was only given a double bed.

"We slept comfortably."

The room was very small. Space was limited.

"The room is small, but if you are only using it to sleep there while on business during the day then it's perfect."

The room was clean, the surrounding area is very safe, and it's near all amenities, I would definitely use it again when I come for another squash tournament. We did not make use of the entire space, as it is attached to the house but the room was as per the pictures. We struggled with the Wi-Fi but I believe in having backup so I had data. All in all a nice, small, cosy space.

"Peaceful and safe overnight accommodation."

Very neat and clean accommodation. Delicious snacks, juice and various breakfast porridges, and Lindt chocolates for Valentine's Day.

"Peace and joy indeed."

Upon arrival, my spouse and I were very impressed with the accommodations. It is very clean and tidy, and the hostess was very professional and friendly. Best service in a long time. Would recommend Peace & Joy anytime.

"Have a great rest and relax. Neat, comfortable and safe."

Owner is friendly. We were warmly received and helped quickly.

"Excellent, value for money."

Place very neat, with everything we need. Friendly reception and extra pampering.

"Small, comfortable and neat."

We stayed overnight at Vrede & Vreugde on our way from Sutherland to Paternoster on our "sluer tour" through the Northern Cape and a bit of the Western Cape. Our host was friendly and Vrede & Vreugde met our need, namely to spend the night.

"Great overnight stay."

Thank you very much for the wonderful overnight stay with you. Thanks for the treats and goodies, they made us feel very welcome.

"Everything you need for a quick sleepover."

Friendly reception. The room with the bathroom very neat and well equipped.

"Very hospitable and made us feel welcome. Neat and tasty snacks."

Can definitely recommend to someone looking for a neat place to stay in Ceres.

"Very nice, clean and comfortable."

This is a very nice and comfortable cottage with everything one needs. We would go there again when going to Ceres.

"Very neat and clean. Very friendly people."

The place is very neat and clean. Martie did a lot of homework and she went the extra mile to make our stay pleasant. The place was very nicely done. This is one of the best places I have ever slept. Thank you very much.

"Special getaway spot!"

Martie and Bennie were the best! They are people of heart and went the extra mile for us. Would definitely recommend it. Dinner was top notch that Martie made for us.

"Very pleasant, exactly what I needed. Friendly reception and very good service."

Good, safe stay. Fruit, cold water, milk etc. made you feel very welcome. Good light in room for working on computer, a table to work on was immediately provided. Fan in room worked well on an evening where the daytime temperature was 37 degrees. Bathroom has everything needed, with comfortable shower and mirror above the sink in which I, short guy, could also see. Fridge, microwave, "zinc" and enough plates etc.
